Cowbell time.

HP03 will play her first soccer game (not pick up) in four years on Thursday night somewhere in Maryland. She looks forward to her triumphant return to her favorite version of her favorite game, however she is horribly, horribly rusty.

Thursday is like a trial run. For both HP03 and the team. If HP03 proves too rusty they may not want her. If the team proves to be too much like "the ringers" of this softball season past, she may not want them.

Why is HP03 sharing this with her randy band of anti-trifuckwits? Because they are hooligans and soccer, as a rule, reveres its hooligans. HP03 eagerly awaits the day that the HPs accompany her to the enclosed Maryland fake field, with its echo-y, rounded walls and whoop it up -- cowbell and all. Perhaps, we should tailgate...?
